It is odd-the quietest moments of my week are actually on the train from home to London. In the morning, there is rarely a sound to be heard on the train-despite it being packed with people standing in the aisles by the 4th stop.
You may hear the occasional whispered hello between people but that is about it. Most are sleeping, listening to Ipods, reading a book or the paper. And if you are brave enough to answer your mobile phone should it have the audacity to ring-the mass of looks that are sent your way could strike you down or turn you to stone!

It's a Dilemma
What to do when its 25F outside...do we ride our bikes the 3/4 mile or so to school, walk (it's a good 10 minutes longer than the old house) or drive? I have to admit I get lazy when my garage bins are frozen shut and there is enough ice on the car windows that I have to run it for 5 minutes before leaving, and drive. However, with petrol now costing us about $9/gallon I may need to rethink.
